Reviewing the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite, a fresh 2021 budget smartphone coming hot on the heels of the Redmi Note 10 Pro, and launched alongside a 5G variant. After a week of testing the camera tech, gaming smarts, battery life and other bits, here's how the Mi 11 Lite ranks alongside other budget phones like the Poco X3 Pro and Xiaomi's Note. My unboxing and comparison videos show you a closer look at these affordable handsets. This MiUI 12 handset offers similar specs to other great value mobiles of 2021, including a 90Hz OLED screen and stereo speaker setup for your media shenanigans. However, there's no headphone jack here, while the 64 or 128 gigs of storage can't be expanded via microSD. Two standard features found on most budget phones. There's also no 5G connectivity, so you'll want to upgrade if you need that futureproofing. Still, gamers will enjoy the PubG/COD action here on the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite, helped by the Game Turbo tools and Snapdragon 732G performance. Battery life is strong as well, while the triple lens rear camera does a good job with everyday photos and video, especially if you have kids/pets/something that won't keep still. Check out my unboxing video and comparison vs the Redmi Note 10 Pro, Poco X3 Pro and Realme 8 Pro to see more.
